A telegram vas received yesterday
from San Francisco. stating that Good
eli. Perkins & Co. contemplated with
drawing their tugboat Wizard from the
Columbia river and placing her ca ths
Sound 10 DO general towing business.
The Wizard vas for number Of years
employed on the San Francisco bar and
Il said 10 be q good steamer. The dis
patch also stated that the command Of
The tug had been offered 10 q Seattle
man and accepted BY him. A reporter
started oui to ind Who that Seattle man
was who had accepted The command.
Most Of those approached expressed no
idea &c 20 who q could be. Captain T..
A. Jensen eaids
al Expect II IL Captain 3. ID. Libby,
because he Is she only tug master
knoR Of in Seattle who Is out of en-
ployment, and ] heard him refuse q
good JOB today, In another direction"
Captain Gilmore was next seen, he
said: II hn9g who IL ts have command

is IL Captain s. ID. Libbyr asked
the reporter.
"Don't press me, because / promised
not 10 say anything about Il. II YOU

Another man said: ssCaptain Libby
Il undcs btedly the man, for the rea-
son that he stands we'll With Goodsil
Perkins q Company, having run as
pilot on their steamers for long time.
and given good satisfaction. There
ere many reasons why they should give
the Wizard 10 Captain Libby. In the
first place be is one Of the oldest and
most successful toe masters on Puget
sound. he he the Goliah for - years
for the Puget Kin Company, and never

RAILROAD ACCIDENT.

A Freight engine and two cars

day afternoon at 4 o'clock. 1t WAS
l o'clock that night before the
track was cleared. The passen-
gers on the east-bound train were
furnished q fiat car and got down
TO the transfer and across the river
but the passengers on the west
bound train had to grin and bear
it until the wreck was cleared. No
warning appears tohave been given
the west-bound passengers in
Vicksburg that they would be COM
PEELED to wait for for four or five
hours in Delta, and If curses bear
fruit Mr.. Clarke will reap a boun-
tiful crop shortly. 1t is said tina.
the nearest wrecking outfit in the
possession of the @. IL G. System
was at Chattanooga and rs there
are only four section men on Sec

tiles were not IN shape to handle
such an acci dent-hence the delay
With any sort of management a
track could have been built around
the wreck in less than half the
time ii took to get things straight.

gether could have made things
